powerpc: Fix corruption when grabbing FWNMI data
The FWNMI code uses a global buffer without any locks to read the RTAS error
information. If two CPUs take a machine check at once then we will corrupt
this buffer.
Since most FWNMI rtas messages are not of the extended type, we can create a
64bit percpu buffer and use it where possible. If we do receive an extended
RTAS log then we fall back to the old behaviour of using the global buffer.

Rework pseries machine check handler:

- Use BUS_MCEERR_AR instead of BUS_ADRERR

Newer versions of the System p firwmare send a partial RTAS error log in the
machine check handler with a more detailed response appearing sometime later
via check event.
This means at machine check time we do not have enough information to
ascertain exactly what went on. Furthermore, I have found the RTAS error
logs in the machine check handler contain no useful information, so halting on
them makes little sense. If we want to halt it would make more sense to do
it following the error log received sometime later via check event.

This is problematic for applications which use CLONE_NEWNET as

MIPS: Use BBIT instructions in TLB handlers
If the CPU supports BBIT0 and BBIT1, use them in TLB handlers as they
are more efficient than an AND followed by an branch and then
restoring the clobbered register.

MIPS: Add generic support for multiple machines within a single kernel
This patch adds a generic solution to support multiple machines based on
a given SoC within a single kernel image. It is implemented already for
several other architectures but MIPS has no generic support for that yet.
[Ralf: This competes with DT but DT is a much more complex solution and this
code has been used by OpenWRT for a long time so for now DT is a bad reason
to stop the merge but longer term this should be migrated to DT.]

x86: Make relocatable kernel work with new binutils
The CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y option is broken with new binutils, which will make
boot panic.
According to Lu Hongjiu, the affected binutils are from 2.20.51.0.12 to
2.21.51.0.3, which are release since Oct 22 this year. At least ubuntu 10.10 is
using such binutils. See:
The reason of the boot panic is that we have 'jiffies = jiffies_64;' in
vmlinux.lds.S. The jiffies isn't in any section. In kernel build, there is
warning saying jiffies is an absolute address and can't be relocatable. At
runtime, jiffies will have virtual address 0.

split init_ino into new_ino and clean_ino; the former is
what used to be init_ino(NULL, sbi), the latter is for cases
where we passed non-NULL ino. Lose unused arguments.
